Think priests will just be a waste of a slot?

Or bascally do as muhc damage before its a quick death.

Anyone have experience in survivabilty within the arenas?

Yeah I'm really worried about the arena. It's already tough enough in WSG once the opposing team know who is healing (well any semi-organized group anyway, PUGs just don't seem to notice).

lol, yeah.

For a priest to survive; we literally need a healer; upon the healer. Which doesn't happen too often. But also is wasting slots thus.

I really feel Imp. Death will be the only 'tide-turning' ability priests will have in the Arena.

I know the expansion will be significantly different than now but, I was recently in a pvp tournament in my guild, about 7 teams of 3(can have a 4th to switch in but can only start with 3). My team won because our strats revolved around keeping me alive and funtioning. I only died agesnt a team with 3 rogues, but I didnt go down till one rogue was dead and another was seconds from dieing even with all 3 focusing on me. It is possible for warriors and hunters(the 2 others on my team) to protect a priest while doing the required dmg to the other team.

Priest should do fine but like any class it depends on strategies and skill. Being a healer wearing cloth your going to be picked on though. Imho if you have friends and guildmates to pvp with you should do well as a priest. If you join pugs then its going to be hit or miss.

so, doing some more arena matchs with the guild, shadow form is a great deterence for people to attack you. Then when they attack the mage or something I pop out and heal. Also did a battle royal last group standing with about 12 groups of 2. Turns out druids are great for keeping you alive too, my group of me and a druid ended up making it to the end with teleios's group of a priest and a mage. Teleios died. So even in crazyness like that 2 priests can survive a long time.

Im still kinda sad that apop and I didnt get to test out our ultimate, secret stratagy.

I died right away at the start of the battle-royal ;-;

And my damn twistingnether trinket didn't proc; lol. I was hoping it would proc and I'd just rez in the end after most of the commotion is gone and trinket-gank the last few people standing. xD

But I fayle at 10% chacne to get an extra-life.

You died right away in our 2v2 match too.

Yeah; never under-estimate the power of the 'dark' side.

Damn you, having me 'stun-locked'; lol. If was hoping Apop would attack me and proc 'martyrdom'; and that would be the end of his interfering with casts.

But not only did he not attack me, you managed to keep me from casting with god-damn blackout!! My poor poor PI-spec. ;-;

I wonder if Martyrdom can increase resistance to silence/blackout.
